INTRODUCTION continues to emerge as a city of international significance. It was ranked as the world’s most liveable city for seven consecutive years between 2011-2017 and was ranked second in 2018 and 2019. Melbourne contains two universities ranked in the top 100 global universities.

Victoria, the second-largest economy in

Australia, contracted by -0.5% over FY

19/20 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Over the year to October 2020 the total number of people employed in fell by 124,600.

Broad based industry shutdowns over the August – October period as a result of a second wave of COVID-19 infections caused a further contraction in the Victorian economy. As a result Victoria’s economic recovery is likely to be slower than that of other Australian states.

DEMAND CONSIDERATIONS

Victoria is the fastest-growing state in Australia and has recorded the highest population growth rate since Q3-2015. The majority of this growth has occurred within metropolitan Melbourne. Victoria in Future 2019 projections forecast that over the 2016 – 2051 period metropolitan Melbourne will house an additional 1.57 million households. Recent population growth across metropolitan Melbourne has been underpinned by high levels of overseas migration. The current border restrictions in place as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic will result in population growth falling below that forecast in the short term.

SUPPLY CONSIDERATIONS

Melbourne’s housing stock is predominantly represented by detached housing; however, policy aspirations aim to achieve greater levels of higher density dwellings to accommodate future population growth. House price growth in Melbourne has been high over the last decade and supported the development of higher-density stock. House prices have recently moderated though remain high by historical standards.

Melbourne continues to remain the leading supplier of new greenfield lots across Australia with an average of 14,400 greenfield lot sales recorded per annum over the 2010 – 2019 period. *Refer to end of report for all sources used in compiling this report.
